[Hiring] Performance Video Editor @Alphalion

Role Description

Alpha Lion is looking for a Performance Video Editor to join one of our fastest-scaling brand pods. You’ll edit high-volume, direct-response video ads for Meta, TikTok, and YouTube that drive real revenue — and you’ll see exactly how your creative performs, with real ad spend behind it, every single week. Your work will be a core engine behind scaling this funnel to $1M/month in ad spend.

• Edit direct-response video ads (UGC, testimonials, VSL cutdowns) for Meta, TikTok, and YouTube
• Deliver 5 new ad concepts per week with 4 variations each (25 assets/week)
• Iterate on winning ads based on real performance data
• Craft scroll-stopping hooks, tight pacing, captions, and sound design that maximize retention and conversions
• Keep project files, footage, and exports organized in a clean, scalable system
• Collaborate daily with a performance creative manager, copywriters, and media buyers

Qualifications

• 1–3 years editing short-form video, including real paid-social ad creative
• Advanced Premiere Pro (or equivalent); solid captioning, sound design, and basic motion graphics
• Portfolio of direct-response ads that ran with real ad spend
• Comfortable producing 20+ finished assets per week

Requirements

• You move fast and love shipping — volume and deadlines energize you, not scare you
• You care more about what converts than what wins film festivals
• You’re data-curious: you want to know how your ads performed and why
• You take feedback without ego and iterate relentlessly
• You’re organized — templates, naming conventions, and systems are your friends

Benefits

• This role offers the opportunity to work on high-impact initiatives, learn rapidly, and grow alongside a company that values ownership, curiosity, and results.
• Beyond base pay, team members may be eligible for performance bonuses, growth incentives, and benefits built to support their health, wellness, and professional goals.

Application Process

• Apply: Submit your resume + a brief note explaining why you’d crush it in this role.
• Screen: TA team reviews for skills and cultural alignment.
• Cultural + Behavioral: In this step, you will take a personality assessment to see how you will perform in the role, then review it on a call with a cultural specialist here.
• Interview: Conversations with the hiring manager and team.
• Final Round: Case study or work simulation (role-specific).
• Decision & Offer: We move fast — typically within 2–4 weeks.

Compensation

• The expected base salary range for this position is $3,000-$4,000 (USD a month).
• Your offer will reflect your experience, skill set, and where you live — we calibrate pay to ensure fairness and alignment with local markets.
